A 707-horsepower SUV that can carry five people and their camping gear or attack a racetrack like a sports car, the 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk is one of the most ridiculous creations in the automotive universe for all the right reasons. In our first drive report I said it was the most vicious Hellcat you can buy, and I still stand by that statement...

It was one of the most talked about cars at least week's 2017 SEMA show, but not everyone was a fan. The car in question is a 1972 AMC Javelin AMX built by Ringbrothers of Spring Green, Wisconsin.

The Ford Mustang may have just been updated but that didn't help it in the voting for the coveted Hottest Coupe award at this week's 2017 SEMA show.

The company took to this week's 2017 SEMA show to debut the classic muscle car, and it says the actor...

Ringbrothers stole the spotlight with its Hellcat-powered AMC Javelin, but it also debuted another Mopar machine at the 2017 SEMA show and this one is just as mean looking. Signifying the Spring Green, Wisconsin company's first-ever Mopar build is a 1969 Dodge Charger dubbed the Defector. The custom shop arguably didn't pour as much attention into the 1969...

Ringbrothers out of Spring Green, Wisconsin is back with another wild build that was unveiled on Tuesday at the 2017 SEMA show. The car is a 1972 AMC Javelin AMX that's been hit up with a Hellcat engine transplant.
